It Was Only A Matter Of Time: iMaxi iPad Case

It was only a matter of time: a case for Apple’s iPad that looks like a giant sanitary napkin . I know, I’m puking in my shoes even as I type. BURN HOT WINGS BURN. Introducing Hip Handmaids’ exclusive iMaxi–the only Apple iPad case made with protective wings! With its durable vinyl outer layer and plush, quilted-cotton sleeve, the iMaxi helps keep your iPad clean and dry. Plus, the iMaxi’s Velcro-latched, advanced wing design wraps snugly around your device, so your iPad always stays where it should. Best of all, it shields it from all those unsightly and embarrassing data leaks that would make any motherboard worry! The cases cost $30 and come in all white, or with an even more disturbing “bloody” red interior (pic after the jump). WTF?! I’m all for prop-comedy but even Gallagher has the draw the line somewhere…. Did anybody else just flashback to the video of the girl crushing the watermelon ? Hit the jump to see the bloodier version.

No No No No No: Humanoid Flies First Class

No No No No No: Humanoid Flies First Class

This robo-jerk, the same one who tried creating a Facebook profile to infiltrate the Geekologie Fan Page , is now flying around in the first class section of airplanes . BAD IDEA. Travellers on a recent Emirates flight from Dubai to Riyadh were accompanied by a different type of passenger, after the Dubai-based airline was tasked with transporting one of the world’s most advanced humanoid robots. Able to verbally interact with people, Ibn Sina stunned fellow passengers as he was checked in at Emirates’ dedicated First Class check-in counters and relaxed in Emirates’ First Class lounge prior to boarding his flight. The transportation of Ibn Sina required countless hours of planning and input from multiple Emirates Group departments to ensure the humanoid was cleared for travel by the Dubai Police Authorities, the Dubai International Airport and Emirates’ safety team. Uh, could you really not just stuff him in a box and mail him to his destination set it on fire? And how come I can’t even use my cassette player advanced media device during taxi and take-off and this BEEP BOOP BOPPING jerk can fly? OH GOD — PLEASE TELL ME HE DIDN’T GET COMPLIMENTARY BEVERAGE SERVICE. Humanoid discovered travelling on Emirates flight [arabiansupplychain] Thanks to Cohan, Conan’s hunkier, battle-axe wielding brother.

Uh, What?: Taxidermied Mouse Flash Drive

Uh, What?: Taxidermied Mouse Flash Drive

This is a taxidermied mouse with a flash drive wedged up its ass . It reminds me spying days when I made off with a bunch of top secret files from the Pentagon. Except that wasn’t a flash drive , it was a stack of 5¼-inch floppies. And let me tell you: based on the way I was walking you would’ve sworn they were only 3½-inchers. I sashayed out of there like a f***ing runway model! Hit the jump for a video of the mouse in action (his LED eyes blink during data transfer!).

Yeah, This Will End Well: Scientists Develop "Autonomous Bipedal Robot Built Out Of DNA"

Yeah, This Will End Well: Scientists Develop "Autonomous Bipedal Robot Built Out Of DNA"

Just when I thought my dino-ribonucleic acids were safe, I get news that scientists have developed autonomous DNA -bots that can biped their little asses around inside me and royally f*** all my insides up. The walking device consists of a strand of DNA that contains a 5′,5′ linkage in the middle. One leg is called L-E and the other is called L-O. It walks on a track consisting of a series of stem-loops (T1-T4) that are part of a stiff DX motif. It is fueled by a pair of successive stem-loops (F1 and F2) that are in solution. The driving force for its motion is the formation of more base pairs than exist at any given time. Right. DNA-scale robots? That’s freaking tiiiiny . And I can recall a time in the not-so-distant past when I was confident nothing could possibly be smaller better to crush monster trucks with than my penis. Autonomous Bipedal Robot Built Out Of DNA [ohgizmo] Thanks to Dave, who’s working on building an army of nano-ants to combat this evil DNA.

Iffy: Mailbox Allegedly Counts Your Mail

Iffy: Mailbox Allegedly Counts Your Mail

First of all, who the hell cares if you get four letters instead of three? Screw three pieces of mail but four — HOLY MARY OF MAIL I BETTER HOVEROUND DOWN TO THE BOX AND RETRIEVE THOSE BITCHES! Secondly, this $55 piece of Thanko garbo doesn’t even count your pieces of mail, IT COUNTS HOW MANY TIMES ITS DOOR HAS BEEN OPENED. Which, unless the chubby f***er next door has been stealing your Netflix rentals again , is probably once a day. A sensor attached to the mailbox counts the number of times the door has been opened, and an LCD display located inside your home keeps you appraised of the possible number of letters or packages that have been delivered. So basically it can tell you whether your mail has been delivered or not. Hooray. You know what else will tell you if the mail’s come yet? Putting the little flag up. BOOSH — they don’t teach you that shit in school! POSTCN01 Alerts You To New Mail - But The Real Kind [ohgizmo] Thanks to Luke, Ishbo and sara, who all love analog mail because it’s more personal. Pfft, you should read the emails I write, I get personal.

I Dare You: Try To Explain How This Is Okay

I Dare You: Try To Explain How This Is Okay

It’s a giant baby robot . It exemplifies everything that’s wrong with robotics . Namely, that they exist — or were born , if you will (L337 baby tie-in FTW!). It shouldn’t exist. If I had a time machine I’d go back in time and make sure it was never created bang dinos. Sorry guys, I’ve got priorities. the robot is supposed to model a 1 year old baby and the purpose is to conduct research on how a baby’s brain develops. Diego-san’s face has about 20 moving parts so that it can communicate with facial expression without being able to talk. It is 130cm tall, weighs 30kg and can stand up from a chair on its own. It can hold a water bottle with its hand. It has a high resolution camera and 6 axis acceleration sensor built in to detect movement. Unfortunately it doesn’t say why the head has to be so big. Female researchers contributed to the design and coordination - thus the photo of woman hugging Diego-san. Pfft. Like you really need a creepy-ass robot to study how a baby’s brain develops? Here, let me solve that mystery for you: slowly. I have an eleven-year old who still craps his pants. And before you all get in a huff about scarring my son by airing his dirty laundry (God I’m good) on Geekologie, don’t worry: it’s not like he can read. Hit the jump for a larger shot of the baby and his inventor.

Never Ever Would I Ever: Fondle A Sex Robot

Never Ever Would I Ever: Fondle A Sex Robot

Seen here in one of the world’s most pathetic photographs, Douglas Hines chats it up with his sex robot “Roxxxy” about soccer (and he wonders why he needs a sex robot ). The anatomically-correct robot, who can even snore, has an articulated skeleton that can move like a person but can’t walk or independently move its limbs. There is Wild Wendy, who is outgoing and adventurous, Frigid Farrah, who is reserved and shy, a young unnamed doll with a naïve personality, “matriarchal kind of caring” Mature Martha and S & M Susan, who is geared for more adventurous types. Coming with a laptop the doll, priced between US$7,000 (£4,350) to US$9,000 (£5,993), was unveiled at the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas at the weekend. Inspiration for the sex robot sprang from the September 11, 2001 attacks, he said, where a friend died and he vowed to store his personality forever. WTF!? Honoring the memory of a friend by humping his likeness in sex-robot form? Listen, I don’t want to be honored if that’s how they’re doing it these days. Just shoot my body out of a cannon and call it a day. Foxy ‘Roxxxy’: world’s first ’sex robot’ can talk about football [telegraph] Thanks to Spenny “human advocat”, Brad B, Zerv, Steve P, TobyRaider, Brandon, Ben, Kyle, M3ntal, The Harbinger of Dooooooooom, Jasmine, dez, J.D., Mollie, Jack and Shannon, who don’t do robots. Literally or figuratively.
